This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other maiginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

LAMPLOUGH'S EFFERVESCING

It is most invigoratiBg, Titalising, and refreBhing. Gives in-
stant relief in Headaches, Sea or Bilious Sickness, and quickly
cures the worst form of Eruptive or skin Complaints. The
various diseases arising from Climatic causes. Constipation,
the Liver or Blood Impurities, Inoculation, and the result of
breathing air infected with F^ver, Measles, or SMALL FOX,
are frequently prevented, and these diseases cured by its use.
The numerous statements and letters relating to its marvellous effect as a positive cure
in TYPHUS, SCARLET FEVER, SMALL POX and other BLOOD POISONS, ore most
remarkable, and are painfully suggestive of great neglect, whenever the PYRETIC
SALINE is not employed in these diseases.
" It furnishes the Blood with its lost Saline constituents."— Dr. MoxtGAir.
SEA VOYAGES. —It is a very valuable accompaniment, and should on no account be
omitted. It instantly allays the sickness.
WORTHLESS IMITATIONS are now being offered to the public, the only merit of
which is a label and wrapper, with a transposition of the sentences and words of mine, a
colourable imitation— in vact, a fbaitd on myself and the public. For the protection of the
gublic against Fraudulent Imitations. I have applied for, and again obtained a perpetual
ijxmction, with costs, against several Chemists.

)he facilities now offered in the way of cheap travelling place a
isit to London within the reach of all, and the aim of the pnb-
ishers of this work has been that it shall be a Guide suitable for
isitors having but limited time at command ; and, judging from
he increasing circulation of the previons editions, we are convinced
hat it has been well received by the travelling public. A com-
prehensive list is given of every important institution, and the
iray to visit the same is shown in many cases ; and inasmuch as we
^ve the full address in every case, it will be easy, on reference
the maps, to trace the direct way from one point to'another.
We have also added a copious Index, which will be found on
mges 97 to 100.
The District and Metropolitan Railways are the best means
)f conveyance to many parts of the City and Suburbs, on account
9f their connection with the Midland and other Railways in the
Qorth of London 3 also with the Great Western at Paddington,
the Great Eastern and North London at Liverpool Street ; and
bhe London, Brighton, and South-Coast, and London, Chatham,
and Dover, at Victoria Station. The trains of the companies
are worked vnth the greatest regularity and safety.
The Omnibuses of the London General Omnibus Company
will be found to ply at frequent intervals to most parts of the
Metropolis and Suburbs. The outside of an omnibus affords an
excellent opportunity for viewing many of the buildings, monu-
ments, and other sights of London.
Tramcars run frequently through most of the principal
thoroughfares leading to Brixton, Clapham, Peckham, Deptford,
Greenwich, Stratford, Leytonstone, Clapton, Holloway, Hamp-
stead, Highgate, Highbury, Stoke Newington, Finabuirj ^^sa^^
Kingsland, &c. V^
iv PBEPACB. y ^
The Steamboats on the River Thames run frequently fr ■
London Bridge to Greenwich, "Woolwich, Westminster, Lambi
Battersea^ Chelsea, Putney, Kew, <&c. This will be found a ^
agreeable way of travelling in the summer time. Daring
excursion season^ boats also run to Gravesend, Southend^ Sheer-
nesB^ Bichmondi &c.
Visitors in a great hurry, or having luggage, should engage
Cabs, and for this purpose we give a list of fares from the
Railway Stations to the principal Streets, Theatres, Public
Institutions, Parks, Churches, &o.
In arranging the list of Churches and Chapels, we have fur-
nished the localities and buildings in which the most popular
and noted ministers preach, and the hours of service.
In the list of Places of Amusement, we give the addresses
and a few particulars of most of the leading attractions 3 and in
the case of Short Excursions in the Suburbs we include the
principal points of easy access from the Metropolis, at the same
time pointing out many historical, architectural, and archae-
ological features.
We also give the addresses of a few comfortable Hotels,
Boarding Houses, Dining Rooms, &c., in the neighbourhood
of the Railway Stations, and in other parts of the Metropolis.
In a work of this description^ it is a difficult matter to ensure
accuracy. Alterations are taking place every day; and although
every precaution may be taken up to the time of going to press,
yet it frequently happens that something occurs requiring altera-
tion even before the work gets into the hands of the public. The
Compiler will be glad to receive particulars of any inaccuracies
that may appe^r^ and the same should be addressed to
THOS. COOK & SON.

by the Baroness Burdett Coutts in Victoria Park and Regent's Park ; by the late
Mr. Charles Buxton at Westminster j by Miss Wheeler at Eew; and many others.
The most magnificent fountain yet constructed in the metropolis, is that

Coutts. Another fine specimen will be found in Parliament Square, West-
minster. (See p. 126.)
